It’s that time of year when spicy holiday tea can become a daily savored health strategy!

The classic mulling spices that induce nostalgia for holidays past are: cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, and citrus zest. These herbs are very similar to a chai spice blend which tends to also have cardamon and black pepper. Other mulling spices include star anise and a variety of fruits (apples, raisins) or fruit ferments (cider, wine, etc.)

This recipe is a spicy tea up-leveled with tonics herbs for supreme nutritive abundance so your body can remain warm, glowing, blissful and immunologically-strong throughout the fall and winter.**

Bring to a simmer for at least 10 minutes:

2 cups spring water or 1 quart spring water for a lighter tea

1 tablespoon cut and sifted organic cinnamon – True Ceylon Cinnamon is more tonic than Cassia cinnamon, but if you only have cassia just use it 🙂

OPTIONAL: add organic apple cider (hard or fresh juice) or organic wine to make wassail *be cautious when using alcohol (flammable) on a stovetop*

Strain through a very fine metal strainer or fine cloth nut milk bag into ceramic mugs. Grin and share!
